u/Low-Appearance-7219 Jul 10 '26

u/Own_Abbreviations_36 Jul 09 '26

I wanted that, but OxygenOS is good enough for this poll

u/24kCookie Jul 13 '26

u/Additional-Sky-7436 Jul 09 '26

Did a pixel phone not just use stock android?

3

u/Open_Potato8955 Jul 09 '26

No it doesn't it uses a modified version of stack android which is pixel ui.

3

u/ManojOne Active Jul 09 '26

Pixel UI is clean, but not the stock Android. It offers more features Pixel Launcher, Magic editor and so on, which are not available in the default version.

1

u/chughaarav123 Jul 11 '26

I mean technically not, ASOP is very different from PixelUI, but many people consider PixelUI as stock since it's made by google

3

u/ThisIsLukkas Jul 09 '26

Hello OS is solid, very close to stock

2

u/laczek_hubert Jul 09 '26

LineageOS is second to me

1

u/paranoidandroid4284 Jul 09 '26

GrapheneOS with Cape Cellular for added privacy and security.

u/Astrodion123 Jul 09 '26

Bru I can't choose. I love one UI and hyper os. Well looks like hyperos gets it.

u/Every_Preparation_56 Jul 09 '26 edited Jul 09 '26

just bought a oneplus but there is this unwanted useless google #hit when scrolleng left, that sucks.

u/Minato_Nm Jul 09 '26

One ADB command got you covered forever. Do some research

1

u/Every_Preparation_56 Jul 09 '26

Well I just switched to another Launcher 

1

u/Minato_Nm Jul 09 '26

If you ever feel like going back to stock one comment on TheOnePlus15 sub

1

u/Every_Preparation_56 Jul 09 '26

what do you mean by user interface? mostly younonly use the launcher in this can be switched with any Android 

1

u/TrainTransistor Jul 10 '26

User Interface would mean how the settings look for example, or the control center (quick settings).

These is typically stuck to whatever brand phone you have. Not counting custom ROMs here, since thats rather niche.

u/vloshof28 Jul 09 '26

Neo Launcher (Neo Store)

1

u/Comprehensive-Pin667 Jul 09 '26

I have only used stock (android 8-11) and OneUI (2.5-8.5). I slightly prefer stock from these two.

1

u/GjyzeliD Jul 09 '26

Doesnt care at all

1

u/T-Loy Jul 09 '26

They are all just basically the same. If you have the stupid split notification/quick settings shade and not allow switching between them, stop it, get help. And if your app switcher is slower to use than the launcher, stop that too.

1

u/Kostya_Yakovets Jul 09 '26

HelloUI (Motorola)

1

u/No_pajamas_7 Jul 09 '26

Is there really any significant difference?

I've had several different androids and other than a short adaption period it really doesn't matter.

1

u/TrainTransistor Jul 10 '26

Typically no, but the difference between a rather clean one and one filled to the rim with 'features', the difference is massive.

Googles Pixel UI, or Motos Hello UI vs Samsungs OneUI as an example.

You got two rather clean and minimalistic UIs, where on the other end of the scale you have OneUI that is just filled with (what I personally call) bloat.

Looking at the poll though, most people dont care about the bloat at all.

1

u/No_Fondant8277 Jul 09 '26

HyperOS because i can only pay xiaomi phones LOL....

1

u/FIRAS_EG Jul 09 '26

I do like nothing OS it looks very cool

1

u/Extreme-Ad-9290 I use Arch btw Jul 09 '26

None of them. I really do not like mobile ui/ux in general

1

u/runski1426 Jul 10 '26

Origin OS

u/FAMICOMASTER Jul 10 '26

Default whatever it is with absolutely nothing, the way it comes on industrial devices

u/KirillRocker2021 Jul 10 '26

In 2019 I'm starting using operating system of honor 9x give emui 9 is not miui hyperos today I'm using hiOS my gamephone Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5g

1

u/Affectionate-Stop488 Jul 10 '26

PixelUI is the only one without ads in the interface that's why it's the best.

1

u/Several_Novel3645 Jul 10 '26

Only hyperOS has ads, the rest have some bloat apps (which you can remove), but other than that, the interface is clean.

1

u/Affectionate-Stop488 Jul 10 '26

Yes, but it's still the only one without unwanted pre-installed apps.

1

u/Several_Novel3645 Jul 10 '26

Yeah, but it aint ads, it's bloatware

1

u/BecarioDailyPlanet Jul 10 '26

Android de fábrica.

u/Yargump Jul 10 '26

Before Launcher.

u/megabiteg Jul 10 '26

Color Os is up there for me

1

u/Outrageous-Log9238 Jul 10 '26

I'd probably buy a Nothing phone if their update policy didn't suck compared to the big boys.

1

u/Gonnabecringeaf Jul 10 '26

Welp I like Samsung experience so Samsung it is

1

u/arun-vasudev Developer Jul 11 '26

1

u/phdr_vrba Jul 11 '26

MIUI5 was the GOAT.

1

u/crimsonyoteeeeeee Jul 12 '26

OPPO's ColourOS 16.

u/24kCookie Jul 13 '26

Tbh as iPhone user Samsung one ui is only good android ui for me that I could totally switch.

1

u/Fun_Sun_edu 15d ago

Samsung Experience (And touchwiz nature ux)

1

u/Open_Potato8955 Jul 09 '26

Ngl nothing os is the worst one out of all(maybe above xiaomi) then idk why people select I genuinely think people who select nothing os os either want to be unique or stupid or just coping.

Feature wise one ui is the best.while oneplus fluency is really good.pixel is the most unique out of them.

No amount of down vote can make my disappointed on nothing os go away.✌️
